About our non-slip bath coating in Seven Dials

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths

Seven Dials questions

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What affects the price in Seven Dials

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Seven Dials

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled
